Duplicate migration
Recently I received an email from Mojang to perform migration from Mojang account to Microsoft account. I was a bit surprised since I have been using Minecraft launcher for quite a while to start Minecraft Java edition. Nevertheless I initiated the account migration on minecraft.net, I found out there that my account still needed migration, so I went further. After entering the 7 digit code and selecting my microsoft account I was informed that this microsoft account already has a minecraft account attached to it. No surprise, since I have been using it for a while. But I wanted to get rid of the mojang's e-mails and finish off with the migration, thus I created a new microsoft account and migrated my mojang account to it. So in Minecraft Launcher I have now two accounts.
I wanted to check which Mojang accounts are linked to them, thus I entered Hypixel to find out my mojang minecraft alias name for each microsoft accounts.
For the "old" (Hokuszpook) one I had no problem. For the freshly created one (BlooodyHell), I was immediately "permanently banned" due to some "suspicious activity"
So somewhat the system allowed multiple migrations of the same mojang account, and one of them led to some security problems.
Attachements:
- Minecraft launcher screenshot showing two Microsoft accounts (with the same Minecraft alias name !!!)
- Hypixel ban screenshot.
I don't care about Hypixel since I just wanted to use it to find out my alias name. What I care is the possible security related bug which allowed multiple account migrations.
You can find my account details on the first screenshot, I presume you can find my e-mail addresses as well from your databases.
The only feedback I need is whether I can delete my freshly created microsoft account without causing any problems to access minecraft with the "old" account.
Best regards,
